Rachael A Horn is a winemaker at AniChe Cellars, a small family winery in the Columbia River Gorge. She has always aspired to write novels, but gave it all up for wine making a decade ago due to various clichéd angst. However, as fate has it, insomnia provoked a story from the depths of her mind one dark and wet December in the wee hours of the morning. Little did she know that a series of Sydney McGrath novels would henceforth erode her literary conundrum into a feasible attempt at writing. No longer frightened to pen a novel, she has forsaken her dream of crafting the Great American Novel for something far more lurid and entertaining. Murder.
Rachael lives with her husband and family in Washington state. She enjoys gardening, all things Flamenco, Nietzsche and butterscotch pudding.
